  16. 2.9 PARKING • Where public transport is improved • Less parking is required • If traffic growth is to be halted • Additional parking should not be provided

  17. 2.6 PEDESTRIANISATION • A common misconception amongst retailers is that retail turnover depends on car-borne shoppers • Retailer support for pedestrianisation doubles after schemes are in place • Ultimate approval is usually between 70% and 80%

  21. AND MORE RECENTLY

  22. POLICE NOTICE TO TRADERS – 1List of most common offences • Delivery lorries/vans parking on the Pedestrian Crossing zig zags or crossing itself (Endorsable offence 3pts & a fine) • Leaving a vehicle in a dangerous position (Endorsable offence 3pts & a fine) • Causing an Obstruction eg blocking a road, parking over a dropped kerb. A major inconvenience for wheelchair users, the elderly and people with pushchairs (Non Endorsable – a fine only) • Driving on the footway (without reasonable excuse). A reasonable excuse would be an emergency vehicle or say shop fitters/security vans to banks. It does not include deliveries/collections (Non Endorsable – a fine only)

  23. POLICE NOTICE TO TRADERS - 2 • Please make sure that the drivers are mindful where they park • If they have to wait prior to delivery they can do so on a stretch of road nearby without restrictions • Please inform the drivers that we will be increasing the amount of traffic enforcement in the area for the above offences • Just because a delivery is due at a certain time it does not give the driver the right to disregard the law/put people in danger just to make it.
